Complex employment litigation covers high‑level disputes arising out of work, including unfair dismissal, discrimination, harassment, constructive dismissal, breaches of contract and breach of the TUPE transfer rules. A solicitor in this area drafts and negotiates pleadings, witnesses’ statements, and expert reports; conducts or resists substantial applications for interim relief, injunctions and early conciliation through ACAS; and represents clients in Employment Tribunals, the Employment Appeal Tribunal and, where appropriate, the High Court for serious remedies or damages. Proceedings may hinge on complex evidence and multiple respondents or jurisdictions.
What a solicitor handles in these matters
The solicitor handles provisions, procedures and interactions that generate difficulty: contested dismissals, discrimination, collective redundancy consultation, TUPE issues, breach of contract and post‑employment covenants; cross‑border or multi‑party claims; and interim remedies where deadlines bite or protected interests must be preserved through orders and security for costs.
